GoPro Camera HERO7, Silver

Es la peor camara de accion que he visto, compre la camara pensando que seria una buena opcion para reemplazar mi GoPro Hero 2, la realidad es que esta camara tiene una capacidad inferior a mi camara vieja.

Es increible como GoPro va en reversa con estas camaras, mi camara Hero2 es configurable en los modos de videos y de fotos, y cuenta con ProTune, esta la ultima version Hero 7 Silver es menos capaz, los modos no cuentan con opciones para configurarla. En video selecionas 4K o desactivas 4k, en las fotos no hay manera de configurar los MegaPixel a la hora de almacenar la foto, cosa que las camaras anteriores tenian varios parametros configurables.

La funcion de timer o time lapse en fotografia simplemente no existe, funcion que en este tipo de camaras debe de ser basico.

En resumen una total porqueria, es mejor una camara de celular que esta camara de accion, digamos que no es mas que un camara mala de un celular en una carcasa de camara de accion.

Un total robo, espero que GoPro salga pronto del mercado y deje de timar gente con el renombre que crearon en el pasado.

Las capacidades del hardware estan ahi, simplemente le quitan la funcionalidad en el firmware para forzar a los clientes a comprar la camara mas cara la Hero 7 Black, eso es un insulto a los consumidores.

Solo espero que mi Hero 2 siga funcionando un tiempo mas y buscar un reemplazo que sea de otra marca. Nunca mas comprare nada que ver con GoPro.

No pierdan su tiempo y dinero comprando los modelos white o silver de Gopro, y piensenlo muchas veces antes de desembolsar grandes cantidades de dinero para comprar la gama alta o Black, mejor busquen otras alternativas de compra

I’ve been using this camera for a few months and it’s not bad; wish the price would be more reasonable though.
It has voice commands and is water resistant.
The camera is a bit too small (especially when trying to program it using the touch screen), and it could be a bit easier to program too.
NOTE: There are NO instructions included with this kit. If you want operating instructions, warranty info, etc. you’ll need to download it from the GoPro website.
Also, I highly suggest going to YouTube for more info on how to use or repair this camera.
(After just a few uses, the battery cover broke off VERY easily. GoPro does NOT include repair info, YouTube saved the day however.
Additionally, even though the camera does come with image stabilization, it has at least a 1-1.5 second latency when taking pictures. This can cause blurred pictures or missed shots altogether.
I would also suggest in purchasing a gimbal (a mechanical image stabilizer) if you plan to shoot POV’s, action shots, etc.
The digital zoom can be adjusted on the fly but it’s very limited.
Sound quality is not bad if you’re not in swift motion. It you plan to use this camera for running, skydiving, road trips (on a motorcycle), etc. then you’ll need to use a noise filter.
You’ll need to download the GoPro Kwik app for your phone, or to download (or purchase) a separate video editor as well.
The camera includes a couple of mounts with sticky tape.
For action shots (jumping into the pool/ocean, swimming, surfing, running, etc) I would recommend getting the wrist or head band sold separately.
It may take a while to get used to programming this camera, but the voice command really helps.
Look for specials from GoPro & Amazon and wait for them. Buy the camera on Amazon!
BELIEVE me you can save up to 50% of the retail price by doing that.

Good product

The “image stabilization” we are being told is built into GoPro and Osmo Action is actually 100% in the editing software that you have to install on your smart phone, not in the camera itself – at least that’s my impression so far. I believe that it is a complete manufacturer created myth that any one of these cameras has better stabilization than another – I think it’s all in the software version.

Why? Because, when creating wireless connection between the camera and the phone became too much of a pain in the rear, I just did that without using the smart phone app. If you’ve uploaded video to YouTube you may know that you can stabilize video there once it is uploaded. Some editing programs have the same capabilities. You don’t need the proprietary smart phone app that tracks your usage and uploads your info and video to the cloud and maybe the FBI. (just joking… or am I? 🙂 )

So all this hype about which camera has the best image stabilization is crap. If you could figure out how to load your Hero 7 video to your Hero 8 or Osmo Action smart phone app, you’d have the same stabilization. They’re not going to tell you this – they want you to buy a new camera that has “better stabilization” than the old one, when they could just let you use the new software version.

Here’s the thing: now that we know this, we can stabilize video made on any device. We can take video files from any GoPro or a DJI camera and stabilized them in a more powerful editing suite that we can use on a double monitor desktop instead of a tiny phone screen along with features like key frame animation for zooming and panning, color correction, rotation, text insertion, transitions, etc.

The video on this is great. The picture is always clear and it stabilizes very well. I many use this on my motorcycle and even when I use a bar mount, there is still no discernible shake, and for reference, there are many instances when the vibration from the motor make my mirrors blurry. The battery, though, is big disappointment. You MIGHT get an hour of video before it dies. You also can’t plug it in and record at the same time so there goes the hardwire power thought. Also, when you plug it into your computer to download videos, it’s also running on battery, not charging. If you need more than an hour at a time for your videos, better get the black as it has replaceable batteries.

i got my camera and when i connected it with the app it said it should be updated to i make the update after that ,Camera turned on and off a few times as the app said it would and the go pro logo on screen. App said successful but the camera just had the go pro logo on the screen and is stuck on that. Won’t reset. Screen just goes off and the go pro logo comes back and that’s as far as it goes. Plug charger in and the battery light doesn’t light up, and pc wont pick up when plug in by USB. Like the operating system has gone off the camera.have removed the sd card, but when i hook up usb to wall outlet the red light doesn’t even light up to say is charging. also have hook up to my PC and the pc doesn’t acknowledge that the camera has been plugged in. go pro is always on cant turn off, when i do a reset with the mode button for 8 sec the screen turns off and then comes straight back on again and wont progress past the go pro logo. wont actually stay turned off. i contact the customer service it told me to try to manual update and i tried but it doesn’t work it kept stuck on go pro logo and then they told me to try different compatible sd card and i got one sandisk extreme u3 v30 128 gb which is compatible with the camera and it also doesn’t work i am fed up from this camera and i need an immediate refund or return with a new one because it’s trash

If there was a better option I’d tell you to choose it, the app is unacceptably bad.
